Thread Name: Origins: Over the Hill
Subject: Origins: Over the Hill
I'm looking for any information on this song, but particularly is there a recording available and by whom. I know it was recorded in the early 50's and is a country song with the sound/style of Gene Autry or Webb Pierce. I could not find this song in the DT (at least with this title) but did find it on Motoya Kitagawa's Bluegrass Lyric site. I have searched BMI and ASCAP, but to no avail. Google brings up only Motoya's site. I did email Motoya but have received no answer as yet.
OVER THE HILL
C E F C
Wandering down a railroad track
G C
Wondering what's over the hill
C E F C
I don't know what I'm searching for
G C
I don't know if I ever will
G C
Must I go through hours of care
D7 G
I wish I knew what lies ahead
C E F C
Wandering down this railroad track
G C
Wondering what's over the hill
Riding o'er the hill of life
Wondering what's over the hill
Facing each day's care and strife
Wondering what's over the hill
I just seem to know someday I'll find
Someone who'll care, who will be kind
I'll wander down this railroad track
And I'll find what's over the hill
